FDA hasn't concluded that CBD is safe for human/ animal consumption.

[KS78]

"This week the U.S. Food and Drug Administration issued warning letters to 15 companies for illegally selling products containing CBD, saying they had violated the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act. At the same time, the FDA published a revised Consumer Update detailing broad safety concerns about CBD products.
Bottom line: The federal government has not concluded that CBD is “generally recognized as safe” (GRAS) for use in human or animal food. Thus, CBD in food and drink is still illegal."

its only been being consumed for tens of thousands of years by humans. Whether it cures every disease in the world like it is claimed to do is a more relevant question.

Dragging their heels there too hey?

You’re still leaps and bounds ahead of us here in Neanderthal Australia however where we still believe that ALL drugs are BAD and have reduced our OTC sales to fucking paracetamol and cough syrup (ephedrine removed of course)

They are disgusting! Anything that helps people , they demonize it . If you get people better by doing what works, they kill you. Very discouraging when you think about how they make these decisions and just pull the cord on something and now life is different for people. Makes me so angry
